Then, Leonardo remarked casually, “The woman I’m getting a gift for has a youthful and lively spirit. Her figure is quite similar to hers.”
“Got it, Mr. Gibson. I’ll take this lady to try on some outfits right away,” the sales assistant replied promptly before leading me farther inside.
As we tumed a comer, I overheard Samarl’s cold voice aslding, “Did you take her away last night? How do you even know her size is about the same as Yvie’s?”
However, Leonardo’s response was drowned out as I was ushered toward a couch
“How should I address you, miss?” the sales assistant inquired,
“Ms. Sutton,” I replied
Ms. Sutton, would you like to start by trying on a dress, or shall we begin with one of the outfits I’ve selected for you?”
“Either works,” I said lightly.
Right then, Leonardo and Samuel approached us. Samael held a shopping bag. Judging by its packaging, the item inside had to be a bag
It seemed that the owner of this boutique was influential. After all, if Samuel had to collect the bag himself, it had to be rare and expensive.
Let her try on dresses that fit a sweet and pure style,” Leonardo Instructed.
With that, the sales assistant humed off to choose a dress. When she returned, she began explaining, “Ms. Sutton has such fair skin and striking features. This dress will definitely
She faltered mid–sentence. It was as if she suddenly recalled that the dress wasn’t intended for me but for someone else.
“The person I’m gifting this to has a fair complexion as well,” Leonardo chimed in. “Her beauty is equally strildng.”
The sales assistant nodded earnestly and led me to the fiting room. Then, she hung the dress on a hook before stepping out.
This boutique was high–end, evident in every detail. The fitting room had a small couch draped with a disposable cotton sheet, while a bottle of water and a diffuser sat on the table beside it.
After locking the door, I checked every corner. Once I ensured it was safe, I slipped into the dress.

One was from Gideon. It read, “breakfast was delicious.”
by now, he was probably on the plane. Still, the fact let this opportunity slip away

I texted back, “That’s hardly payment after you looked after me these past two days. When you retum, let the treat you to a meal to properly thank you.”
Of course, I didn’t expect a reply. Gideon’s early–moming light to Eldoria wouldn’t land for at least ten more hours.
The second message was from my landlord. “Jules, the other tenant has decided to move out two weeks early. If you want, you can pay half a month’s rent and move in now.
Iresponded, “Alright. Let’s meet tomorrow to sign a supplementary egreement.”
within seconds, my landlord wrote back, “Sure!
The knocking on the door gew more insistent. Samuel was clearly running out of patience.
Reluctantly, I rose and unlocked the door
